This Key West Bar Is an Ex-Morgue With Bodies Still Buried in It
 

Ernest Hemingway, Truman Capote, Shel Silverstein, Tennessee Williams and the Mayor of Margaritaville himself, Jimmy Buffet, have all enjoyed a drink (or 8) at <a class="" href='https://roadtrippers.com/us/key-west-fl/food-drink/captain-tonys-saloon'>Captain Tony's Saloon in Key West, Fla</a>. What the tourist guide books often fail to note when promoting the saloon is the fact that it was established in 1851 as an icehouse and morgue.

There's many places where there are buildings, and even towns built on top of old cemeteries.
